So its the most expensive BS.

But it has less bots/bats, less guns, less cargo, and much less armour than the Nomad or Rheinland one. And from what I hear it is the worst ship in disco as far as manuvering.

Why? Does it come with some super uber zoner shield? Does it have thrusters? Anything particularly special about it?

Its a good thing, one step in the right direction ALL BS should cost you at least 750 mil... that would mean you need 1bill to be able to fly one. GOOD THING!

Imaginations, folks, imaginations. Try to imagine, they have something special, what can not be shown in Freelancer.
For example: radar absorbing materials, special engines consuming less H-Fuel, very comfortable quarters.
Life support system for the OC Dread, which is filling the air with cardamine. Newer and faster catapults for fighter launches.
Melt you brain.

Additionally the modelers have to be paid for the work.

Easy for you to say...My trader is poor...
Also its overboosted,Battleship license balances the number of people flying BS's,and also balances the price.

when that is about the zoner juggernaut...



its not that bad. it has 16 turrets and they can ALL fire into the front arc - aswell as the back arc. the majority can even fire sideways - and the only weak spot is above the juggernaut, then its only half its guns that can fire. its very big though. so aiming isn t really easy. the targetting cross determines the projectiles speed and targets momentum from the middle of the juggernaut - but shots take some time to go all the way from the rear cannons.



about manouverbility. its not that bad - simply avoid asteroids. it has 550k armor, which is 3rd best ingame. when its all about stats and fairness, it might have more than a rheinland and nomad BS; but i think the nomad BS deserves the whatsits? 680k - and well, rheinland = bricks-in-space, so i wouldn t complain there.



all in all, i never felt bad flying the juggernaut, what i d love to get was a bigger powersource for such a huge piece of metal that looks more like a city+engines than a real ship. but that won t happen, so why dream about it then:)



besides - in contrast to the corsairs or most any other faction, zoners simply don t need a battleship.



only thing i WOULD LOVE TO GET is.. a skinning update - i know the juggernauts are old.. but i d still love them to be a bit more polished and not looking as if they came right from the junkyard. - but thats starwars design..... .



if it was rather white with some colours ( uhh.. like a red cross:)) ... i mean - brighter, grey/white, not rusty and had some reflective/highly polished parts, it would be awesome.

statwise, i feel fine with it. ( i know, it could be better and when its about price and size of it, it prolly really deserved better stats - but then.... what for... shooting pebbles and asteroids )



@AoM:



could have edited, but i just had to do that seperately ... "life support that fills the air with cardamine vapours?" - omg, outcasts cannot be such hardcore junkies... can they?:D

Not saying it's bad.

Just wanted to know why it is the most expensive when others appear to be slightly better...yet are cheaper.

You really shouldn't buy the Juggernaut. Only a few were made, and only one was rumoured to be in existance.

Plus what kind of Zoner needs that much salt to spread into his enemies wounds?

If you think its any weaker than the Outcast Dread, bring a BS to Theta and I can show you its not inferior in any way. I've found my Juggernaut proforms much better than my Outcast Dreadnaught ever did or does.

But yes, please keep the buying of Juggernauts to a minimum. Read the infocard for reason.
